Marketta Simpson

A woman was found shot inside a vehicle in the 1200 block of Kroeger Avenue in Dellwood. Officers said they received a 911 call about a shooting around 2 p.m. When they arrived, they found 34-year-old Marketta Simpson inside her vehicle with a gunshot wound to her abdomen. She was taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Investigators soon after identified Sha’Miya Watts as a suspect. Watts, 32, was arrested about 10 p.m. in the 10000 block of Neville Walk in unincorporated St. Louis County. “The investigation revealed an ongoing feud between Simpson and Watts had escalated over several days, which resulted in the incident unfolding,” Maj. Ron Martin of the North County Police Cooperative wrote.
